Intramolecular attraction forces between atoms.
Atoms rearrange due to chemical reactions, which occur when atoms form or break chemical bonds. This rearrangement happens to achieve a more stable or energetically favorable state. Atoms can gain, lose, or share electrons to form new chemical compounds and achieve a more stable electron configuration.
The ratio of different atoms in a compound important because the compound has to achieve an equilibrium in terms of electrical charge. The net total of charges of the atoms forming a compound must be zero.

Atoms can gain, lose, or share electrons to form new chemical compounds and achieve a more stable electron configuration.
Chlorine atoms have 7 outermost electrons and need to gain an electron to achieve the stability of a full valence shell.
To gain electronic stability (i.e. stability with respect to their electron configuration)
Most atoms are not stable in their natural state, so they tend to react with other atoms in different ways to become more stable.Read more: How_do_compounds_affect_an_atoms_stability
This depends on the ability to gain/loss electrons.
covalent
Radioactive elements are ones that have too many or two few protons and/or neutrons to achieve stability. For any normally stable isotope, adding or removing neutrons will make a different isotope, and can easily result in an unstable nucleus.
To get stability.
The ratio of different atoms in a compound important because the compound has to achieve an equilibrium in terms of electrical charge. The net total of charges of the atoms forming a compound must be zero.
It depends on the no. of atoms in the outermost shellIf there are p no. of atoms in the shell, then,if p4, then (8-p) electrons need to be gained for stability.
